“Huh, she just fainted like that?”

Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback, “Hey, hey, hey, you’re making it hard for me. It’s not proper for a man and woman to be too close.”

Despite his complaints, Jiang Xiaobai approached and put his finger under Lin Sien’s nose to make sure she was still alive. Only then did he start checking her condition.

After a thorough examination, he found her wounds to be severe and entirely internal. Her organs had been completely overtaken by a fiery toxin, leaving her vitality nearly depleted.

“Honestly can’t figure out how you’re still alive.”

Jiang Xiaobai murmured, “You’re lucky you ran into me. No one else could have saved you.”

As he said this, out came a Celestial Dew Pill. This heavenly medicine, commonly known as the “Immortal Pill”, could cure any ailment when consumed. Reviving someone from the brink of death was no biggie.

Afterwards, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t pay any more attention to Lin Sien. Instead, he walked over to collect his spoils of battle. After a quick inspection, he was surprised to find that these black-clad men were quite wealthy.

Multiple storage rings yielded five to six million top-quality spirit stones. The quantity, albeit small, could be considered a huge sum to some individual practitioners.

One of the storage rings even held a whopping three million top-quality spirit stones. Jiang Xiaobai deduced that these men had been hired as assassins.

He turned his gaze to Lin Sien on the ground, grinning with excitement. Anyone with a bounty on her head must be worth saving. Surely she should be able to pay something in the range of several million spirit stones?

While he can casually dish out billions of top-quality spirit stones, his two formidable tools endlessly consume these spirit stones. It is never enough, they are just drops in the ocean to him.

Without further delay, Jiang Xiaobai enveloped Lin Sien with his spiritual energy and took off.

Not long after Jiang Xiaobai departed, three burly men, wrapped head to toe in black bandages, appeared at the scene of the previous battle.

“Brother, the kid’s power is growing stronger, what should we do?” LaoEr, the second demon, asked in bewilderment.

“No matter what, we took money from our employer. If we said one month, it’s one month. We have to persevere,” the eldest demon stated.

“But bro, I’m so hungry. We haven’t had a proper meal these few days.”

“Eat, eat, eat; all you think about is eating. Look at yourself. Can’t you show some ambition? After we finish this mission, I will treat you to mountains of delicacies. ”

“Big brother, you are awe-inspiring!”

After their goofy conversation, the three demon brothers followed Jiang Xiaobai’s trail and disappeared from sight.

Five to six minutes later, a group of men in matching black attire arrived at the site. Each radiated an aura of terror.

“Sir, we let her escape,” one of them reported respectfully.

In the front of the crowd stood a young man dressed in white, an air of chilling bloodthirst emanated from him.

“Find her. She couldn’t have gone far due to her old injuries,” he instructed coldly, throwing out an appendix order, “split into two groups; one on standby at HuFu Mountain and the other continue the pursuit. And remember, I need her alive.”

“Yes, sir!”

In a cave, Jiang Xiaobai was roasting a large rabbit over a fire, while also exploring the new reputation feature in his mind.

The reputation feature unlocked after he killed the father and son duo from the city lord mansion, but Jiang Xiaobai had been too busy to check it until now.

“Current Reputation: 5”

That’s what the reputation panel displayed. In addition, Jiang Xiaobai noticed options for reputation rewards and a reputation shop, both of which were grayed out, meaning he didn’t yet qualify to access them.

Jiang Xiaobai wondered, what was the point of this so-called reputation?

Does a higher reputation correspond to better rewards?

He shrugged. As of now, this feature wasn’t of much use to him, thus he didn’t pay it much attention and focused on the roast rabbit instead.

Just then, he heard a murmuring behind him. He turned to find Lin Sien, on the verge of waking up.

He locked eyes with her and after a moment of silent staring, Lin Sien suddenly sat up, drew her sword and held it to Jiang Xiaobai’s neck.

Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes at her, unfazed, and calmly continued to turn the spit-roasting rabbit.

Upon seeing this, Lin Sien frowned but before she could say anything, her eyes widened in surprise. Her internal injuries and the fiery toxin were completely healed!

What’s more, she could feel her realm’s constraints loosening. She believed she was on the cusp of reaching the Transcendence stage!

At that moment, Lin Sien remembered the events leading to her unconsciousness, encountering Jiang Xiaobai in her dire state, and seeing him vanquish their enemies…

For a moment, she looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a hint of bewilderment, as if she’d seen a ghost.

Despite her astonishment and confusion, Lin Sien knew this was a golden opportunity. She quickly sat in meditation to cultivate and break through to the next realm.

She cultivated for three whole days. When she opened her eyes, she saw the cave floor covered in bones, and a man with a hopeless expression drinking in despair.

“You’re finally awake?” Jiang Xiaobai said, sounding somewhat drained.

Lin Sien frowned, her recent breakthrough joy dimming at Jiang Xiaobai’s demeanor.

“Who are you, really?” Lin Sien narrowed her eyes.

“Who I am doesn’t concern you. Let’s discuss the medical expenses first.”

Upon mentioning this, Jiang Xiaobai’s look of dejection disappeared, his eyes glinting with anticipation.

“Medical expenses? What are those?” Lin Sien was puzzled. Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, “Hold on, let me break it down for you.”

“First, when we met, you threatened me with your sword, causing psychological trauma. That’s worth some compensation, right?” Jiang Xiaobai added with a smile.

Lin Sien was left speechless, “I…”

“Let me finish… Then, you brought an army, which left me psychologically distressed. This is a fact, no need for you to argue, these costs need to be covered too.”

“And then, you forced me to carry you, an attempted assault. Even though you were unsuccessful, it did leave a emotional impact… After that, I provided your execution and life saving services…”

“Um, adding all those up, it comes to approximately seven million, eight hundred and fifty thousand top-quality spirit stones. How about, to make it easy, I round it up to eight million top-quality spirit stones?”

After sharing his lengthy explanation, Jiang Xiaobai showed his friendly side with an innocent smile, reaching out his hand, signaling her to pay up.

Lin Sien was stunned by Jiang Xiaobai’s demands. When she heard the final amount, she made an ‘eight’ sign with her hand, looking completely flabbergasted..
